4 BEAR HUNT WITH A SOLEMN FINALE.

4 BEAR HUNT WITH SOLEMN FINALE.
The French Broad hunters do not often
go after bear without bringing back
trophies of their skill. Luck sometimes
fails, as it did recently with some of the
boys who had been reading up some of
our accounts of bear hunts in different
parts of the State, when q dozen or more
were bagged in a weeks hunt. They
were resolved to beat the record, and
with great gathering up of noted dogs,
and full supplies of provision and camp
equipage, strucI off for the wilder
ness of the Black Mountains. They had
week Of it. Day after day they scram-
blet through laurel thickets, and climb
ed and crossed many a rugged ridge
Night after night they came back dis
appointed and dispiIited. Nary bear
did they get the trail of and at the end
of the week, packed up for home, bring-
ing back with them as their only trophy
solitary scfeech owl which one of the
party shotin evaporation at the demoniac
laughter of the night bird which grated
on the hunters ears as if in derision of
their want Of success as baer hunters.

| TuE EXODUS TO CALIFORNIA.
For twelve months or more CaliforniI
towns ave been advertising most liber
ally the attractions of tnat ss,. ion in the
East snd Middle .sta.. 1sfissncI," "Gtis started
tide of emigration 10 that State which
has reached enormous proportions. II
became so great that the railroads began
giving special attention to this class Of
travel. ThiL fall these roads estimated
they would transport 10000 people across
the continent, and placed agencies al
several central points to arrange for
them. To show how very great the cur
rent has become, the agent at Boston, for
the New England States, has already sold
tickets to persons leaving that section
alone. to the amount of $4,000. This Of
course leaves out of the calculation all
tickets sold at and from New York to
Omaha. 1t is now estimated that at
least 100000 people will 90 to California
this winter All carry moro or less
money. Outside of capital carried for
investment the amount thus carried to
that State must reach from $75 100000 to
$lOO00O,0 900. And all through thorough
and energetic advertising. The South is
richer in natural and valuable resources
and attractions All that is necessary to
divert large portion of this travel and
population to our section iB to thorough
~, persistently, and energeticaily adver-
tise these resources, by printed matter
and travelling agents. Suppose we could
induce 10000 good people to come to
Western Carolina, bringing even $500
each; this would amount to $l0,000,000
cash besides untold millions in industry.
Let our people wake up, and let all unite
and work. Let us get some of the mill
lions in the North now idle, and some of
the thousands of good citizens who wish
to better their condition.

We had . visit yesterday from DR..

by the late DR.. Whittier with the excecta-
ton of building up model town and

plans were ouly partly developed; and
with the loss of its head, the enterprise
was threatened with paralysis. But
though some plans have been abandon
ed by the heirs and representatives of
the founder of Whittier, the town goes
on to live and prosper. Tobacco culture
was largely undertaken On the property.
The soil suits it well, aud the industry
prospers. DR.. Seruggs tells US up to the
present he has shipped this season 29.640
pounds of tobacco, besides many car
loads of lumber, and also of granite. OF
